David

[Liqui-Fly]

After the bottles are cleaned up:eek:

[john ring]

[PhastBoat]

Yea baby!;)

[PhastBoat]

Can you name the famous guy that I'm arm wrestling with at the Cabo Wabo Cantina in Mexico?

[Bulletboy]

Fly

Helmut, if you can get the RV and my kid doesn't come early, maybe I'll be able to pull it off.....

Don't pull it off, u might want another kid :D

Thats pretty rich by my standards. All I had was a boat and a rag top. Figured the rag top counted as a tent.

[john ring]

I hear that !!! Getting a little older, and I used to sleep in the truck....lol Damn, u must have gotten eaten alive in the spring. Ya gotta tie young kids down or the skeeters will take em away :-)

I'll be the camp that smells like Skin-so-soft...lol

As far as I figure, it isn't how you get there, its all about being there :D

[PhastBoat]

:D

[at100plus]

Helmut brings all kinds of contraptions, one of them attaches to the hose and sprays the entire campsite down with bug repellant. It works too. He has more amenities when he goes camping than most people have at home. I love my camping partner!!!!:D

[RONNIE]

YOU LOST TO THE DAD FROM FULL HOUSE WHAT A BUMMER!!!!! SORRY SAM I HAD TO

[PhastBoat]

He promised, if I let him win he would set me up with the Ulsen twins when they turn 18.
Havent heard from him- how old are thoughs girls?

[wing nut]

i havent booked my site yet for the romp, what # should i get?

scott

[PhastBoat]

http://www.ReserveAmerica.com/usa/ny/nort/ - NYS campsight; nice lakeside sights
- sights 204 to 213 recommended......214 - 216 are very good but inpossible to turn a trailer around in but with a waterfront sight you could just leave her in. I'm at 207.

[Trikki1010]

Free Beer and party favors at sites 212/220 :D

We play outside the lines :-)

Phastboat, the Ulsen twins are 80 years old, you should have gone for the Olsen twins ...lol

Then again, it don't hurt when they bits :eek:

[PhastBoat]

;)

[at100plus]

OMG, I don't care how old, I'll take my consequences!

[Trikki1010]

If ya need any backup, let me know :D

And yes,,,,thems the ones :-)

[Liqui-Fly]

He must be in the mid pregnancy uncomfortable zone.....fighting whether he should or not hehehehehe.
David

[at100plus]

Oh, I guess I'm not alone in this??? Lead me not into temptation!!;) This is going to change for the better right Dave?

[stvhelm]

"consequences" Yeah go ahead. Anyway, you wouldnt want your kid to have any black and blues when it comes out.

[at100plus]

True, I'd have to be really careful, I could do some major damage:eek:

[Liqui-Fly]

I don't book sites for people but here is all the info you'll need. The campsites have its own launch and the Flipp Inn and the Inn at the Bridge have a very nice free State Launch right down the road.

After getting heat the last three years I will have t-Shirts this year but need a simple design. They will be no more than $10. I need a simple logo perhaps something for the front..a little one and something on the back. Rondak Reservoir Romp '04 is all I ask for. Winner gets free shirt. Red White and Blue ok or are their gonna be some commies there???

Due to excessive whining about noise from the rangers last year this year we will have a Bon Fire at Miller's Grandview Marina on Friday night. Travel arrangements will be determined by everyone on Friday. If we don't take boats there will be Vans and non Drinkers provided. Saturday night will be the Sport Island Pub again which will be a little more banquet and social like unless some demand the usual sit down dinner. Maybe some awards and a raffle or something like that too.

http://www.flipenterprises.com/ - this is the Inn closest (walking distance) to the Saturday evening rendezvous at Sport Island Pub 518-725-7277 214 Co. Hwy.152, Northville, NY 12134

http://www.innatthebridge.com/ - this is also close to the Pub; docking available (518) 863-2240

[LGT-FST]

Fly you mean I get a free teeshirt? Remember it's not how fast you go it's how long you go fast. Five months and counting and I am still not scared. Luv ya the strato's strangler.

[Techno]

Are the rangers based at that marina and thats why your burning it down? I'm missing something between the noise and the bonfire to???

[RONNIE]

hey Warren should I tell everyone how a little brown boat with a welded together used part motor with 2 on board can beat up on the the stratos strangler?? no ok then I won't. love ya man

[Trikki1010]

Start your engines.......:-)

Let the jousting begin ...lol

[PhastBoat]

If I remember correctly the night "You and Mr. Clean were being very loud" was Sat. night, the night of the banquet. But dont worry I'll have a talk with the Rangers, Ill tell them the noise is coming from Wingnut's campsite.:eek:

[Tom D.]

Fly.
I can get a good deal on the T-shirts. You just come up with a pic. or logo. Maybe a pic. of RONNIE buzzing the bridge. See there I go agian!! HEHEHE!!!:p

[Techno]

I get it now. I thought the BOATS were too noisy:eek:

I'm all set with getting them done....I just need some design ideas.

On another note...what a bunch of wise asses.

i dont know if i missed this but how much wil they be? also can we get our names on them? :)

scott

[Liqui-Fly]

Names.....you're kidding right? I'll bring the black marker and some masking tape.

They won't be more than $10. I'm keeping it simple; a few colors on a t-shirt.

[PhastBoat]

Keepin
It
Simple
Suckers
;)

[Liqui-Fly]

Don't want my name or my boat in the logo. Thanks Sam I will keep that though:)

David

[Trikki1010]

Phastboat, ur some graphic artist :D

Better stick to basting mad cow....:eek:

Any odds on who the rangers will visit first ??

I was gonna bet on my crew, but ...................

[Liqui-Fly]

I don't want to have to kick anyone's ass andyplace other than on the water. Following the rules and setting the reputation as a good group allows us to do what we want on the water. Anyone who deviates from this standard will wake up with an OMC on the back of their rig:D

David

[PhastBoat]

I'm sure Ronnie wont mind.:eek:

[Liqui-Fly]

But I think that's Greg's picture so we should get premission.

I'm thinking white shirts with red picture and some blue lettering. Is this OK??


David

[Liqui-Fly]

Please bold the a in Rondak and the m in Romp

[PhastBoat]

Thats the font
Its called RANSOME- you know like a ransome note.

scott

[Liqui-Fly]

That ain't one uv dem t-sanamies is it?

[Liqui-Fly]

You get one of these beauties

[PhastBoat]

I meant RANSOM
Like when a kidnapper send a letter and uses different letters cut out from a newspaper.

[Liqui-Fly]

Is that what you meant? Change the picture to charcoal ort something like that so we can get it on a shirt and hurry up too.

[PhastBoat]

:confused:

[Boz]

Nothing to do with this thread but I like that little video going on in your siggy.

[Liqui-Fly]

Thanks

[at100plus]

Yea I like the video too.

Hey is the August Romp going to be any good this year? I think the timing is wrong for me to make the June Romp. Falls right in labor grace period.....

[Liqui-Fly]

Of course it is

[Tom D.]

Mikie,
You sound like your more nervious about this baby than your wife! Relax! The "Dam Run" will help induce labor for her. ;) We'll have a chopper on stand by.

Tom

[at100plus]

Can I fly the chopper?

[PhastBoat]

Can you fly this?

[stokernick]

???????wHERE ARE THE FLAMES????:confused:

[Trikki1010]

DAMN !!!!

If that's the chopper he's taking, she's definitely delivering enroute...lol

Nice rear set-up, does it work ??

[wing nut]

im pretty sure thats not sams bike.. its made by chopper inc (correct me if im wrong)

I CANT WAIT FOR THE ROMP! its gonna be awsome!! looks like there will be more boats then last year as well..

im booked in site 205 btw

scott

[Liqui-Fly]

I'll be gone for a few days so if I don't get back to anyone be patient.

[Trikki1010]

Let's dig up some **** that'll get his head spinning !!!!!

Then we'll delete the posts that rat us out before monday...lol

Sorry wing nut, meant Mr. Simon

[Trikki1010]

If necessary, I'll throw the kegerator in the back of the P/U...I'll just pack it with ice, otherwise runs on CO2 :D

And maybe a bottle of absolut :cool:

[stokernick]

TRIKKI, Mr.SIMON is his GRANDFATHER,he`s just David!!!!!:D :D :D :D :p

[Trikki1010]

Hey, it was late, a couple of beers. Mr. Simon, yes, I spoke to him the other night, as David, but ya know,,,,**** happens...when you consume alchohol...:D

I'll still bring a 1/2 keg though ...lol

And the bottle of absolut:cool:

[stokernick]

what will be in that keg?Jack Daniels,Early Times,Old Granddad?You should be more careful about TWI(typing while intoxicated}You`ll find the RoMP guys are very low key,sedate group except maybe Tom,Sam,MrClean,Ronnie,BigNick,Bruce,David,Mike,Helmut,etc.etc.NOT!!!;) ;) ;) ;)

[stokernick]

Sam,you have too much time on your hands,you need to work on your boat.....more flames!!!:cool: :cool:

[HERB]

Herb from Intimidator Boats will be there. Made my camp site reservation today site # 8.

[Liqui-Fly]

It sounds like you got as far away from the crew as you possibly could:D You owe me a ride!!

David

[HERB]

I thought Helmet was getting site #9 so I took the site on the other side of the road and on the beach. If I got the wrong site let me know and I'll change it I just want to be where I can keep my boat in the water. No problem on the ride.

[Liqui-Fly]

Helmut probably got 209. We stay in the 200 to 215 stretch. If you ewant to leave your boat insites 214 215 and 216 are really nice but hard to turn around in. The strip from 204 on up to about 211 will be completely occupies by us so even if you site isn't water side someone that does will provide a parking spot for you.

[HERB]

Ok thanks. I changed it to site #211 much better.

[Trikki1010]

Ain't you lucky, ur next to my degenerates :D 220/212

Very nice boat, That's the SOB contestant ??? Must love the rough...

[HERB]

Thanks. It looks like I have a bit of space between those sites and mine. And yes my boat likes the rough. But I don't.

[JIM5656]

My site is about 10 minutes away by boat but I hope to make it this year.

[Liqui-Fly]

You only have 5 days to get on your front porch. I'm pulling for ya;)

David

[81hydrostream]

herb i think that your mistaken I have booked site 211 from the 19 to the 21.

[Trikki1010]

Alright,,,who's got lucky # 213

[JIM5656]

Don't quite understand? But I'm glad your pullin for me.I just hope I don't need to be pulled.

[Liqui-Fly]

I'm hoping you can make it out on the water atleast one of the 5 days we'll be out there.

David

[JIM5656]

We'll unless something else is in conflict that weekend you can bank on it.

[HERB]

Ok I have lucky #213 at the camp ground.

[john ring]

just booked my site today,couldnt get 212 again,so i took 210, which is better because its a shorter walk from sam's camp when your drunk after dark.the sites are booking up fast,looks like a good turnout for ya dave. later john

[at100plus]

Damn I hate to miss this one Damn Damn.

[Trikki1010]

Congrats Herb,

We rarely run out of food and drink, and aren't noisy in the AM :D

And we like to cook.

Wanna check ur boat out when we're there. I'm a laker, but I love those SOB's

[HERB]

Well I'll be glad to take you out for a ride I just hope it runs as good as it did last year. I just purchased the all new 300vmax yamaha. Everyone is saying I made a mistake I hope to prove them wrong.

[Trikki1010]

Yamaha :o We can't all be perfect...lol If it runs, she's fun. What'ya think you'll see out of her ???

And...I'll return the favor in my little puddle skipper :eek:

[Liqui-Fly]

Herb you'll have to bring your own rice up because we only have corn up here:) It's always great to see something different.....hopefully the Yammer will work well. The 300X setup will be tough to match.

David

[Charlie M]

I did not have any problems finding rice up there last year.

[stokernick]

CHARLIE,DID sANTA BRING YOU NEW DRAIN PLUGS??:p

[Charlie M]

:D Yup was a good boy last year. Also made shure the boat ran before leaving also.

[stokernick]

life is SWEET !!:D :D :D

[Liqui-Fly]

Charlie you change stuff so much it's hard to remember. Rice this year too??

[Charlie M]

Too early to tell yet. Still looking for that good deal on a 260 drop-on to replace that Bridge-Port collecting dust in the corner of hte garage.

[stokernick]

don`t look in PENNSLYVANIA !!!:p :p :p

[Trikki1010]

"Romped" around with the sleds yesterday,,,ahhhhhhhhh

2 stroke - blue smoke:D :D :D :D

The "other" hard water :cool:

[Liqui-Fly]

I boxed up all my pieces so I can take them to Long Island and have them put together. How can one motor about 1.5 feet wide and and 2 feet long fill up three great big boxes when its disassembled? Anyway it is nice when your boogers don't freeze when you have to go outside.

Does everyone like the t-shirt design that Phastboat came up with?

David

[Rich Owen]

I like Sam's design . I wonder if the locals will shoot us on sight if they see Ronnie's boat on our chests . :D

[stokernick]

there will be optional bullseyes for those who are interested.also ear muffs for the early morning hours:D :D :D

[LGT-FST]

Order bullseyes for Ronnie and I, him bein my copilot and all. See if you can put a fly swatter on our's also.

[Liqui-Fly]

Who would boat to the marina on Friday night if the weather is "decent" by Romp standards? Who would rahter travel by highway? It should be about a 10 to 15 minute drive from where everyone is staying. 5 minutes by boat or 20 minutes for LGT-FST. I'm thinking around 7 pm. Shall we do food (pizzas?) or eat before?

David

[PhastBoat]

Dave we can pile into my boat- but you will have to drive. You know my condition;)

Or we can get BigNick to pick us up in the pontoon boat:eek:

Can we get a BBQ there?

[Liqui-Fly]

I think we could arrange to already have a BBQ there. I think we'll probably have to leave the travel arrangements until that day. We'll draw straws to see who drives back:)

So you think a nice little BBQ would work? We could re-cook whatever is left over from lunch.

David

[Trikki1010]

Let me know what ya all want to do and what ya'all need.

I can bring grills, food, racing gas (104 unleaded, 110 leaded), And if ya want, I'll throw the shrimp on the barby. (not the night of the marina).......

I'm cumin up on the 16th to set-up........

7:00,,,,hmmmm, would love ta boat there, but have to play it by ear,,,,,,,I,,,, like Phastboat, have a medical condition in the evenings that requires alot of medication....:D ;)

And Phastboat, I'll still bring the keg....:o

[Rich Owen]

The weather at the Romp , "decent" , well I guess stranger things have happened . :D :D :D

[Liqui-Fly]

:mad: you fill in my thoughts....
David

[wing nut]

i can drive back if u guys want.. but my boats a little small to fit every1 lol

scott

[Liqui-Fly]

We're getting you hammered:D

[81hydrostream]

My reservation got missed up my new site is 215. sucks 211 is a nicer site but what ever.

[Liqui-Fly]

215 is really nice...just hard to turn around in.

[Charlie M]

Will the park Rangers get upset if its dark when we get back with the boats? What time was it when the Rangers came out and told us (SAM) that we where to loud.

On the shirts you could put;
Where speed limits don't mean NUFIN'
Their ain't no wake at 100mph

I remember seeing a Big Johnson Tee shirt with a powerboat driving through a swimming area. Said something like; Shell suck more than gas when you have Big Johnson

[Liqui-Fly]

Not if we're curtious as we should be. The noise went on for hours with the talking (shouting). If we pull in and shut them off there won't be any problems but it is definitley something to consider.

[stvhelm]

as of today sites 200 thru 204, 216 thru 219, and 221 thru 224 are still available. get em before they book up.

That is a great update. It nice to have veterans around:)

[PhastBoat]

We moved?

[Liqui-Fly]

Figured it made more sense over here.

[PhastBoat]

;)

[Trikki1010]

No wonder ur cold.....Can't get much wood splitting with dat craftsman screwdriver:eek:

Did they take all ur sharp tools away ;)

[Liqui-Fly]

That's a Long Island splitting maul.

[Tom D.]

I got my site. 201 across the street from my QUITE neighbor the Fly and BIG BEAR and his Homies.:D

Tom

[Sutphen115]

I've never been to a gathering. I can finally go to one now that I have something that will tow my boat fine. So what goes on, does everyone just hang out on the lake? What does a site cost? Any info would be great about the romp cause I am really interested in going maybe.

[81hydrostream]

sutphen15 last year was my first romp. I had a lot of fun everyone just hangs out out on the water. Last year we all went out to dinner on saturday and then theres the dam run on sunday wich i missed due to some motor prolems. Everyone there is great. A site cost something like 75 bucks. I diffently would recomend going.


Ray

[Liqui-Fly]

The site is about $75 for 5 nights:) This year there will be a more poganized party on Friday night in addition to dinner on Saturday night.

[Rich Owen]

Yea , we need more poganization :)

[Sutphen115]

so its $75 for the site for 5 nights plus a lot more cash for gas and oil. How many people show up usually. Also are there any sites still available on the water?

[Tom D.]

You don't have to have a site on the water. Those that do will more than likely let you park your boat by there site. Or some people take there boat out every day. There is a launch ramp right at the camp grounds.

Tom

[Liqui-Fly]

Not my fault that you don't know what poganization is:)

[at100plus]

:( I wanna go!

[Liqui-Fly]

I was in your shoes for the '02 CT River Run. You'' never regret not going after your child is born.

David

[Sutphen115]

How many boats show up usually???

[INXS]

The Wife says I never take her anywhere, HA, HA, HA!
Good Reason!

INXS

[Liqui-Fly]

This year is gonna be the biggest yet so for. We get around 20 to 30 boats in and out over the weekend.

David

[Sutphen115]

nice, I just have to find a friend that wants to go with me and I'll be there.

[GEOO]

I plan on going Sunday from early in the morning till the afternoon.

[Trikki1010]

NICEEEEEE !!!!!!!!!!!:D

I'm thawin' out already;)

[Hottrucks]

Ok now that I've heard of this Romper room boat thing :rolleyes: someone needs to tell me how far it's to Glen falls by boat or car it's alot closer than northfield for me I'm coming in from NH thru Vt.. :o This sounds like something I need to show up for even if the boating sucks I will need to be medicated most evenings during the summer, My regular Doctor Morgan (aka Captian also a boat head) says its good to visit other medication vacilities and play with the others there with like intrests . He aslo recomended some where in Conn. on the river some where and I didn't remember when he said either???:rolleyes: Do I need a scrip or should I just pass out anywhere??

[Tom D.]

Lots of doctors pasing out scrips. Come on down we'll have 2 or 12.

Tom

[Trikki1010]

I got my doctorate in Mixology;)

If we can't cure what ails ya, we can at least make you forget about it

Hottrucks - I used to live in Schroon Lake. Your gonna cut across Rutland and hit the Northway @exit 17. From there you can go either north to exit 21 and cut through Lake Luzerne or south to Saratoga Springs and catch 29.

'bout 45 min. to an hours from Glens Falls:D

[BIGNICK]

Are you sure that picture is Sinclair Point?

[PhastBoat]

Didn’t you learn a lesson? Flys navigational skills are apparently better then yours. Especially at night! And there is a smashed up prop to prove it.;)

[Charlie M]

David where did you get that photo, did you scan it off of a post card?

[Liqui-Fly]

My sister sent it to me. She said it was and I believed her and am pretty damn sure it is.

David

[BIGNICK]

HERE IS A PIC OF THE LAKE.I dont see how that other pic can be of the same.AS for my navigational skills,I GUESS I JUST wasnt use to driving that fast!MAYBE this June will spare the pontoon and do it in something more SWEET

[Liqui-Fly]

It's somewhere on there. I'll have to ask her. Mybe it was up the river.

David

[Hottrucks]

:mad: :mad: Now I'm off the deep end You're going to throw this rompy room thing the same weekend as BIKE WEEK :mad:
Unless you can tell me how to drag my boat behind my Hog I'm going to be SOL :( and that hurts my feeling (and thats my last one at least thats what the other half says )
Can we reschedule it for the next weekend??
I was looking forward to going too :rolleyes: Now I have to get a scrip for a local cantina so I can stay vertical until I get home if I'm going to be on two wheels :eek:
Change weekends Please???

[at100plus]

Just do what I did.

I found out the Romp is scheduled for the same weekend that my first born baby is due. I asked my wife and she said no, I can't go. So I sold my boat. What's the sense of having it if I can't make the Rompy this year.;) I'll get a new one for next years romp.

[Tom D.]

David

[Liqui-Fly]

Gary S called to BS and clicked on a lightbulb. Maybe Friday night I'll have a TV and VCR set up to play some videos during the shin dig. Sound good bad or ugly??

David

[LGT-FST]

Who said the fly was ugly? It's a good thing that little girl looks like her mother.

[BIGNICK]

YOUZ GUYZ BETTER PLAN ON EXTRA SLUGS AND GASKETS TO PUT YOUR RIDEZ BACK TOGETHER AFTER FRIDAZ RIDE...

[Hottrucks]

[Liqui-Fly]

I saw the plug for their cowl when I went to pick up my seats last year. It looked really nice.

David

[john ring]

and ive got somthing pretty wild in mind for a paint job too,it should look good if it all comes together right. john

[81hydrostream]

Im trying to get ready also. Im trying to get in touch with this guy about his boat that I want to buy and it is getting to be a little annoying.

[Liqui-Fly]

What are you looking at?

[Hottrucks]

Hey JR where did you find anyplace to buy kool boat parts ( No pun intended on the weather or Ice) way up north we're just about neighbors compared to some of these guys that B^%$H and moan when it gets to 50 degrees :rolleyes: and have parts at there fingers!! I'm looking for a cowl like that to and would luv a deal. That and my solid mounts then I can put this thing together. Then take it off to add the new jackplate and steering before paint!:D Good thing we have all this spare time (LOL) and they wounder what we do all winter :cool:

[81hydrostream]

If everything looks good and goes right i will be buying a vegas with a 225 pro max

[at100plus]

Is it listed on the board? I think I remember seeing the combo somewhere.

[81hydrostream]

[at100plus]

[Trikki1010]

He ain't back yet ??? ;)

[81hydrostream]

I got back sunday morning with a sweet vegas xt with a 225 pro max in tow. I cant wait to run it. This is the cleanest boat that I have ever owned. I will try to post a picture tomorrow.

[Rich Owen]

Congratulations !!!!!!

[Trikki1010]

Congrats 81 Hydro, now comes the sweaty palms waiting for the water to warm up:D

It's NICE driving w/ da new boat on da back,,eh :cool:

Your from Fairfield, NJ, where do you do boating ???

[81hydrostream]

I do most of my boating at lake Hopatcong. Sometimes to change it up a little I will go to Greenwood lake.

[81hydrostream]

Heres mine

[Liqui-Fly]

Awsome ride. You've got to be dying for spring.

David

[Trikki1010]

Congrats Dude,

Let me know if your headed up to Greenwood, preferably before Memorial Day. The Auxillary Coast Guard start patroling and there is a 45 MPH speedlimit on the lake.

I'll buy ya lunch at the Breezy or the Castle Tavern, you make the call :D

My parents live upstate, so I usually get up to Schroon Lake. There are no speed limits and not alot of heavy boats;)

My boat is under a tent right now, the icebergs are slowly melting, shouldn't be too much longer:D :D

I did check on her, and she is alive and well:cool:

[81hydrostream]

Im dying to take this thing out I just spoke to some guys from south jersey and they were telling me there is no ice on the bay and that they were out on sunday. So I think that im going to go saturday the weather should be like 55-60 I can live with that.

Trikki I will let you know. The 45 law only sticks only if they catch you LOL but that lake is not that big so that is easy.

[HERB]

Hey Lique-fly. I just spoke to someone that was up there last weekend and said the lake is still frozen solid. Will it thaw out but June.

[Trikki1010]

Awww c'mon Herb, It'll thaw out the week before:D

Ya just can't go swimming unless your a member of the polar bear club.....

And bring some GOOD bugspray. It's tourist feeding season:eek:

[Liqui-Fly]

The water will be thawed and warm and the sun will be shining!! Crystal clear and ready to swim in too.

David

[Hottrucks]

I'm hoping to make the Romp in August If someone can tell me when that one will be ?? :confused: I'll post a pic of mine now that it's out of the snow bank. It looked like a snowmobile when I pulled it out of the barn,snow was blowing off the wheels and bouncing off the bottom. At least I got it out before swamp season. Put the new powerhead on last night and now it's ready to be dismantled for new paint and parts .

:rolleyes: Hope the Ice doesn't go out to fast lots of work and so little time

[Liqui-Fly]

We always wait until later for the August Romp. We like to keep it two weekend after the rumble...weekend before labor day.

[EXSTREAM EH!]

Hey FLY I will still bring my umberlla thank you! And My snow shoes just in case. NO rain this year PLEASE.


What you do?

1 buy Riche's 225 PROMAX and hang it on the Valero.
2 buy my friends HST with rebuilt bridgeport.
Out of pocket would be about the same.
Option 3 DO NOTHING.

[stvhelm]

Dave, when are you coming here to build that motor of yours?

[Liqui-Fly]

I'll be there Staurday morning.

[Trikki1010]

More snow friday:eek:

The gods are fighting ya David :D :D

Nice run in Georgia Helmut:cool:
Nice to be home instead of stranded on the turnpike
You got friends:cool:

[Liqui-Fly]

Sick of this powerhread consuming 1/4 of my garage in 6 boxes. Time to put this damn thing together.

[Trikki1010]

I hear ya too.

Spring fever's gotta be settin' in, even if it did just snow.

As a matter of fact, I'd have them parts in the Living Room:eek:

[Trikki1010]

DING-DONG ----Fly, ya home???

How did the build-up go ????:confused:

[Liqui-Fly]

Ronnie said I washed parts like no other.

[Trikki1010]

Rare event, I had to work last weekend. Otherwise I would have loved to see you guys.

Is the ice melting YET, Are ya getting it mounted???

Are your palms sweaty:eek:

I can't wait, I can almost get the boat out of the barn :D

[Liqui-Fly]

Motor won't be on until June

[Charlie M]

JUNE, David the Romp is in june. Are you gonna be able to bolt the motor on a go?? I hear the excuses already.

[Liqui-Fly]

Who needs a drain plug when you've got high powered drugs? Thanks for your support.

David

[Charlie M]

What kind of idiot does it take to drag a boat 600-700 miles and not even bring a drain plug.............what a dumbass.

I have all the confidence in you David....but 2.7 sounds kinda small for an outboard......

[Charlie M]

Seen this T-Shirt design

[Liqui-Fly]

That's only half the motor

[81hydrostream]

Be careful with gimmicks like that and free software. Alot of that stuff contains adware or spyware that installs itself on your computer without permission. These programs monitor your internet usage, report back to a server for the purpose of advertisers gathering info. Some install popups on your computer, some default you to a home page etc. They will slow your system down and they are a pain in the ass. Ever hear of the game Yo Mama Osama, that has spread through email. That is a classic adware spreader.

Remember, nothing is REALLY free, except S&F :-)

[Liqui-Fly]

I've found my second wind and am ready to start getiing ready to get ready:D I got an interesting phone call yesterday....some might be getting their ass whopped by a romper that has picked up another boat that nobody knows about hehehehehe.

[Shaneskater24]

Lookin' forward to hangin' with you guys...hopin' you won't blow me away TO BADLY! I love watchin' you guys "hangin' it out"!:D :cool:

[Sharkey-Images]

If you only had one day to spend at the Romp and it could not be Saturday, which would be the better time to go. Before or after?:confused:

It looks like it is a bit further than I expected to get there. Possibly 4 to 6 hours? :confused:

What do you guys think?

I would be bringing my wife & kids. Are there any hotel accomodations in this area?

Or is it just the Campground & some Bed & Breakfasts???:confused:

[PhastBoat]

We do a nice run to the dam.

Sites for lodging and some lake pics
http://www.flipenterprises.com/ - this is the Inn closest (walking distance) to the Saturday evening rendezvous at Sport Island Pub

http://www.innatthebridge.com/ - this is also close to the Pub; docking available

http://www.superior.net/~lanzi/ - nice upscale restaurant with a big deck; casual

http://www.eagleshore.com/ - just some photos

http://www.ReserveAmerica.com/usa/ny/nort/ - NYS campsight; nice lakeside sights
- sights 204 to 213 recommended......214 - 216 are very good but inpossible to turn a trailer around in but with a waterfront sight you could just leave her in. I'm at 207.
